*** My Little Chinese Dream***: Update on my Dossier

Update on my Dossier

Lastnight I got an email from my agency letting me know that my dossier is halfway through notarization-authentication & translation. They said that it will be ready on July 10th and will be sent to the SK Gov't that week. The SK Gov't will then send my dossier directly to China. I'm not sure WHY it has to be sent back to the SK Gov't, but hopefully it will immediately be sent, and not sitting on a desk for weeks. Normally my agency sends China a bunch of dossiers in a group, but becuase I'm in the Waiting Child Program mine goes as soon as it is ready. So I will have a July DTC (Dossier to China) and hopefully a July LID (Log-in-date). A LID is a date my file is logged into the CCAA (China Centre of Adoption Affairs) system. Referrals are based on your LID's, so that means the faster my dossier can be LID, the faster I can be matched with my daughter and receive my referral. The Waiting Child Program is a little different than the regular program inregards to the LID & matching time frames, but the steps are pretty much the same.

Once my dossier is DTC that will mean that I'm officially "PAPER PREGNANT"!!!!!

We are DTC as of June 9th , not recieved our LID as of yet, I guess the CCAA is pretty erratic with sending them out so We could find out Next week or next month! I hope you get your LID quickly after your DTC! You could celebrate DTSK!!!!! LOL; June 30, 2006 7:15 PM

hopefully you will have your documents back in no time, and the province will work quickly to have it processed and off to china asap!

my dossier is currently being translated as well - i thought i would have it back a little sooner but one of the documents disappeared and i had to courier out a new one. the waiting is all-consuming at times, but every time things speed up or slow down i think that there is magic at work to connect me with my daughter!
